Welcome to the forums! You're on the Classic Trains forum, which is probably not the best place to get peoples' attention for your request. Try reposting it on the Classic Toy Trains forum.

Regardless, there are a lot of people on here who may be able to help you a whole lot more than I can. However, there is an organization called the Train Collectors Assn that may be able to assist or can put you in contact with someone who can. Their reference library contact for email is [e-mail]
